Cledus T. Judd Tree's On Fire lyrics

June, wake up, June
The tree's on fire, June, oh no

Love is a Christmas tree
But don't think any old tree is safe
Some have a long expire
Turn your house into a funeral pyre

And I watered that tree
Till the branches rose up higher
And it drank, drank, drank
But it kept on getting drier

Now it burns burns burns
This tree's on fire
This tree's on fire
June, call 9 1 1, June, oh

The heat from the smokin' pine
Melted my copy of 'Walk The Line'
And I tried to save 'A Boy Named Sue'
Dang it cooked him too


The cat walked in
Set my Christmas tree on fire
He climbed, climbed, climbed
Hit some bulbs and stripped the wires

That's when I learned, learned, learned
This tree's on fire
This tree's on fire, damn cats

I go into my Christmas tree of fire
And I huffed and huffed and spit
But the flames would not expire

Boy, it burns, burns, burns
This tree's on fire
This tree's on fire

Blow, June, blow
Oh, keep blowing, June
